Happy June!
Although the weather seems more like April here in New England, between the cooler temperatures and all the RAIN! (Thus the inspiration for the illustration above!!) LOTS going on in the studio these days, starting with sketching for a new children's book with Xist Publishing! This will be my second book with them, and the story is short, simple, and sweet - perfect for the youngest of readers!

I also started a brand new, weekly comic strip in May, that can be seen on both Facebook and Instagram! (It has its own page on both!) I have worked in the women's home fitness industry in Product Development and Marketing for the past 7 years, and have learned along the way that no matter where you are in your fitness journey, whether a gym junkie, or reluctant participant, we can all use a little encouragement and a BIG laugh! And so "Fit By Mit" was born!
Be sure to check it out on Facebook ***HERE!*** and Instagram ***HERE!***

I had time to participate in the May SCBWI "Draw This" challenge! The prompt was FEAST! (Anybody have a dog who is overly enthusiastic about dinner?) I love these challenges, and was so glad to be able to submit my work for this one! It is so much fun to see the different ideas the prompts spark! And of course, the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators is a FANTASTIC organization and one I am proud to be a member of!

I also got to play "teacher" at my local library for their artist group that meets there twice a month! The members were very enthusiastic, and learned how to draw cats, dogs, and I even threw in a lion for good measure! It was a lot of fun!!!

And finally, I have been overwhelmed with the warm reception my coloring book has received since it became available in March! It was such a big project that took a year to complete, so it is both heartwarming and gratifying to know that people of ALL AGES are enjoying it! So much so, that I have begun work on a second one, and have an idea for a third!! If you would like to get a sneak peek of the fun, whimsical coloring pages, and are curious about what people are saying about it, check it out on Amazon ***HERE!***
That's all for now!
As always, I appreciate your interest and LOVE your comments!
